probably a lot quieter, any civil wars in 2nd and 3rd world countries would go to their logical conclusions without interference from an outside "world" power. most of which started anyway because of "regime change".

It's hilarious how China is used as a boogyman, people are either too naive or just use China as a threat. A planned economy under communism is doomed, period...it doesn't matter how great their current GDP growth is. Not to mention their censorhip of internet, death penalty even for fraud, salaries 3 times lower than Japan and no one outside of China willing to learn Chinese.

EU will be the new world power together with close cooperation between Japan-Korea, sort of similar with the Nazis pre-WW2 the difference being Eastern Europe(EU) will do better than West EU (France) and Korea and not Japan will be the Asian partner. Israel and India will be their 'allies'.

We are all states built by humans, countries are a human construct therefore fallible. However, the US has done a lot of good, the founding principle of freedom, liberty and democracy although not always upheld are noble ones. For the most part in modern times these founding principles permeate throughout the world thanks in part to the USA's success therefore I have a lot of time for the US. The main thing that really grates on me is the general ignorance of the populace, if they were just a little bit more worldly that would be a major improvement because I can even sort-of understand some of the logic behind the 2nd amendment.

At the end of the day I think the world is better off with a strong US.

As for the OP, he/she is coming up with some really outlandish hypothesise I just can't take seriously.

Eastern Europe would be called the "Soviet Union" again! Of course the western Europe might would join them this time.

Not shocked this is American forum, people seem up to date with developments in europe since 1989...or maybe not...for the record Russia is Eurasia not "Eastern Europe" and it's not in the Eastern Europe EU, frankly I can't see this happening.

Even Turkey ending in the EU is some 20 years ahead, potentiallly happening if at all.

What does the fact that this is an American forum has to do with anything that goes on in this silly thread that no one (or so I thought ) is taking serious and just gets littered with tongue in cheek remarks?
